Hey, I realize it's not as nefarious as stopping traffic on a bridge, which is why the msm has spent thousands of hours talking about one and not the other...

It could be this gets less coverage than the other because one involves a potential candidate for President and the other a potential candidate for California Secretary of State.

Did you know who Chris Christie was before the bridge scandal? Is your answer the same for Leland Yee and his arrest?

It doesn't require a nefarious plot by the imaginary MSM to understand a difference in the amount of coverage.

Right. If Yee was a pro-gun conservative this would be top of the hour news at CNN, MSNBC and the 3 networks.

if he was a pro gun conservative, he wouldn't have been pushing gun control legislation, while involved in gun running.

Any network that dedicated equal coverage to these would be the one pushing an agenda.

It just doesn't make any sense that an obscure state senator in California deserves the same coverage that the potential front runner for a major party Presidential nomination gets.

Your attempt to prove a point by equating them says more about you than any media outlet.

The media didn't have any problem devoting a great deal of time to obscure state Senator Wendy Davis.

Equate them? I never said that. How about if the media devotes any coverage at all to Senator Yee. This story is like House of Cards, Scandal and American Hustle combined. If you think that the media I cited wouldn't be all over this story like flies on **** if Yee was a Republican, you aren't being realistic.
